Amazon wants me to lose a little weight

I have a pair of these, I want another. Any guesses as to which ones fit me very comfortably?

I once read something about supply and demand influencing price.

But that's likely just right wing propaganda.

Also, I'm betting that Amazon knows what size you are likely to buy.

Ah' reckon' that's purt'-near ack'rut. Maybe I can have one of my full-figured friends take a peek and see what the market will bear on his version of Amazon....

Back to work. Gotta pay for those pants.

Yep, as is 35 and 37. The even sizes are cheaper. It is pure discrimination of the odd sizes. We need to have a protest! Odd sized people are people too!

Well, I guess I march to the beat of a different drummer.

When I got my first 'real' job I needed to stock up on dress pants. I wore a 28" at the time...

I was asking the sales man (There were still sales men in department stores way back then) for pants in my size and he said, in a thick Southern drawl, "Boy... we only have men's sizes here"

I can still hear his voice.
